Geography
Bílá is located about 26 kilometres (16 mi) south of Frýdek-Místek and 40 km (25 mi) south of Ostrava, on the border with Slovakia. It lies in the Moravian-Silesian Beskids. The highest point is the Trojačka mountain at 987 m (3,238 ft) above sea level. The easternmost point of Moravia is located in the municipal territory.
The Bílá Ostravice flows through the village and the Černá Ostravice flows along the northern municipal border. They merge there and form the Ostravice river.
History
Bílá was originally a small hamlet founded in 1817.[2] In 1951, when the boundaries of the municipalities of Staré Hamry and Ostravice were redefined, Bílá was separated and became an independent municipality. Between 1974 and 1991, it was part of Staré Hamry. Since 1991, it has been independent again.[3]
